Go to Spanish Two assignments...

**http://www.wcpsteacher.org/education/staff/staff.php?sectionid=4513&**

In addition to Spanish 2 assignments on my webpage, there is also Spanish one notes and practice under the Spanish 1 assignments section. If you did not do well in the first week of class on the quizzes, this is a place you can refer to the notes and information we covered in Spanish 1. There is also a Spanish 1 wiki that has a list of websites to practice all of the topics covered in Spanish 1. It is on the left side of this webpage. It is "home."
